SoS Rice made a surprise visit to Iraq. Well, maybe she thought it was a surprise visit (via The Washington Post):

A ceremony at which [Secretary of State Condoleezza] Rice unveiled a plaque commemorating civilian deaths in the Green Zone was briefly delayed during one of several “duck and cover” alerts for incoming rockets during her six-hour visit to the fortified compound housing the U.S. Embassy and much of the Iraqi government.

Although there is some question as to whether Rice thinks, ever:

Sadr’s threat could exacerbate violence in eastern Baghdad at a time when al-Qaeda in Iraq, a Sunni insurgent group, is threatening to step up attacks against U.S. forces and their Iraqi allies.

“I don’t know whether to take him seriously or not,” Rice said of Sadr’s threat.

Why don’t you just borrow Chimp’s flight suit and say “Bring it on,” you daft bitch?
